The Archpriest of Talavera by Alonso Martínez de Toledo
This translation, entitled The Archpriest of Talavera, after the ecclesiastical title of its fifteenth-century author, Alfonso Martinez de Toledo, is principally a treatise on the harmful effects of illicit sex on both men and women. Based partially on "The Reprobation of Profane Love," the third part of the medieval classic Andreas Capellanus' (André le Chapelain) De amore, it considers how profane love ruins our lives and separates us from God. Divided into four books, the best known is the second, containing vividly related Laics of feminine wiles and vices which have made this work a Spanish Classic. Book jacket.
